Seamless heel on a handmade oxford shoe
Heel pattern

With a seamless heel, a single piece of unbroken leather is wrapped around the heel.

 

A heel cap can also balance out the rear of the shoe, offsetting the choice of toe cap.

Prawn detailed facing stitch
Design elements

A fomal facing stitch chosen specifically for the oxford derby. Hand threaded, it serves to ensure the upper does not pull apart.

Beveled edge on oxford handmade shoe
Finishing options

Shown with a beveled waist construction, hiding the stitches on the outsole.

Edges and thread all chosen in matching black.

Customization recommendations

Looks good with pinking, light broguing. Keep the heel clean for a smooth unbroken curve.

Or for the purist, choose a toe cap, dog tail heel and bevelled waist. In black, the leather quality makes the shoe.
